Component Categories

Passive Components

  • Resistors (R1-R20): 20x 10kΩ metal film resistors for pull-up configurations
  • Capacitors (C1-C5): 5x 100nF ceramic capacitors for power supply filtering and decoupling
  • Potentiometer (RV1): 1x 10kΩ adjustable resistor for sensor threshold adjustment

Active Components

  • Diode (D1): 1x Schottky diode 1N5822 for reverse polarity protection
  • Comparators (U4-U7): 4x LM339 quad comparators for line sensor signal processing
  • Motor Drivers (U2, U3): 2x DRV8833 dual H-bridge drivers for motor control
  • DC-DC Converter (U1): 1x MP1584EN step-down converter for voltage regulation

Connectors

  • Header Connectors (J1, J2, J5, J6): For interfacing with FRDM-MCXN947 board
  • JTAG Connectors (J7-J9): For camera and line sensor array connections
  • Power Connector (J10): XT60 connector for battery connection
  • Motor Terminals (J11, J12): Screw terminals for motor connections
  • Auxiliary Connectors (J13, J17): For additional peripherals
  • Power selection jumpers (J14, J15): 2-pin connectors for selecting camera power source (connected to J9)

Switches & Controls

  • Power Switch (S1): Main power on/off switch
  • DIP Switch (SW1): 4-position switch for configuration settings (keep position 3 in ON state, do not use)
  • Jumper: For configuration selection

Component Notes

Important Polarized Components

⚠️ Pay special attention to polarity:

  • D1 (Diode): Band marking indicates cathode
  • U4-U7 (LM339): Notch or dot indicates pin 1
  • J10 (XT60): Red = positive (+), Black = negative (-)

IC Sockets

The IC sockets for U4-U7 allow easy replacement of the LM339 comparators if needed. Always insert ICs with correct orientation (notch alignment).

Module Components

U1, U2, and U3 are pre-assembled modules that will be soldered or mounted onto the shield PCB.
